Southern Forest World Needs 1,000 Supporters
One Gift. One Mission. One Community.
We’re seeking 1,000 supporters to give a $31.00 gift to help fund the remainder of the year.
A few years ago, we lost essential support from the State Government through Georgia Forestry. Since that time, we have continued to serve our community – but we urgently need your help to move forward.
Your donation ensures we can continue to provide the best educational experience possible for children, families, and visitors of all ages.
How You Can Help
• Be one of our 1,000 Supporters
• Donate $31.00
• Help sustain education, history, and discovery
Don’t forget to stop by and see “Stuckie” as seen on Ripley’s Believe It or Not!

Stuckie’s Summer Camp was such a hit with our son! He had such a wonderful week! He learned and retained so much information! I was blown away! The learning, crafts, activities, water day, snow cones, backpack of goodies, t-shirt, stuffed animal, the list could go on… it was much more than we were expecting! The leaders and volunteers went above and beyond to make sure the kids had a wonderful, memorable week! Our son is already looking forward to next year! Thank you, Southern Forest World!
